A sudden conflict

"ᛋᛏᚱᛖᚾᚷᛏᚺᛖᚾ… (Strengthen... )" 

Quickly muttered a spell right away, a flash of magic power shone for a brief moment as Luke stretched out his hands to welcome the incoming carriage. 

Swiftly taking hold of the carriage, the magic worked its wonder as Luke's strength became multiplied, not to mention with the power of his body that was a cyborg. 

Somehow, feeling like his image was that of superman, Luke held the carriage with both arms and gently put them down. Didn't liking what they saw, a few whistles from the black clothes group, fifteen of them broke out of their formation and intended to surround Luke instead. 

Their companions continued with the chase of the rest of the carriages that had passed by. 

Seeing that he was being circled by these dangerous-looking riders, Luke opened his mouth and was about to say that he had nothing to do with this. But then, before he could do it, a girl with age of 18 had come out from the carriage and quickly hugged Luke's waist. 

Without minding her manners at all, the girl's looked at Luke with teary and pitiful gaze as she said a lot of things in one breath, "⊑⟒⍀⍜, ⌇⟟⍀, ⌿⌰⟒⏃⌇⟒ ⊑⟒⌰⌿ ⋔⟒! ⏁⊑⟒⊬ ⏃⍀⟒ ⏚⏃⋏⎅⟟⏁⌇ ⍙⊑⍜ ☊⏃⋔⟒ ⏁⍜ ⍀⍜⏚ ⎍⌇ ⏃⋏⎅ ⍙⍜⎍⌰⎅ ⎅⍜ ⎅⟟⍀⏁⊬ ⏁⊑⟟⋏☌⌇ ⏁⍜ ⋔⟒! (Hero, sir, please help me! They are bandits who came to rob us and would do dirty things to me!)" 

"Wait, what??" flustered at the sudden hug and speech that he didn't understand at all, Luke was quite confused as to why that girl stared at him with tears as if he had taken advantage of her or something. 

Eyes lighting up as he realized what the girl trying to do, the old man who wore an ordinary white robe and the driver of the carriage, quickly went down and hold Luke's hand as he said his piece, "⍜⊑ ⋔⟟☌⊑⏁⊬ ⍙⏃⍀⍀⟟⍜⍀, ⊬⍜⎍ ⊑⏃⎐⟒ ⏁⍜ ⌇⏃⎐⟒ ⎍⌇! (Oh mighty warrior, you have to save us!)"

Trying to push them away, Luke said with agitation on his voice, "Wait, wait! What are you guys trying to say? I don't understand!" 

The black riders that had been called bandits by both of them swirly jumped down from their horses and brandished their weapons. One of them took a step forward with a frowning expression as he said, "⏁⊑⏃⏁ ⎎⍀⟟⟒⋏⎅ ⍜⎐⟒⍀ ⏁⊑⟒⍀⟒. ⏁⊑⟟⌇ ⍙⏃⌇⋏'⏁ ⊬⍜⎍⍀ ⏚⎍⌇⟟⋏⟒⌇⌇. ⌇⍜ ⏚⏃☊☍ ⍜⎎⎎ ⏚⟒⎎⍜⍀⟒ ⌇⍜⋔⟒⍜⋏⟒ ⍙⍜⎍⌰⎅ ☌⟒⏁ ⊑⎍⍀⏁. (That friend over there. This wasn't your business. So back off before someone would get hurt.)" 

As Luke's face became more confused in each passing second, the old man who sneakily positioned himself right behind Luke, suddenly pushed Luke's back to where the black raiders were. Then, he quickly grabbed the girl's hand and distanced themselves behind Luke. 

Caught unguarded from the sudden force behind him, Luke tumbled a few steps forward to the front. But as one of the raiders saw Luke's suspicious move, that person swiftly shot an arrow in Luke's direction. 

With his reaction alone, Luke grabbed the arrow that was shot at his shoulder and instinctively pulled out his handgun and aimed at the person who had attacked him. His gaze filled with killing intent, but only for a moment as he immediately halted himself as reason came over him. 

'That's not good.. If I counter attack back, the situation would become messy real quick.' 

Unbeknownst to Luke, although he had stopped midway, every warrior of this planet had some certain degree of sensitivity to the killing intents that radiated from their opponents, much less if they were in the middle of observing him. 

Seeing that Luke pulled out a strange thing from out of nowhere and pointed it to his companion with hostility, the man who had spoken to Luke from the start moved his sword and aimed at Luke, while he shouted loudly. 

"☍⟟⌰⌰ ⏁⊑⟒ ⎎⍜⍀⟒⟟☌⋏⟒⍀! (Kill the foreigner!)" 

Already waiting for the signal, all the raiders charge at Luke with unexpected speed. Each of them had the speed of world champion athletics from Jameson's world, earth. 

But that wasn't enough to suppress Luke. 

Clicking his tongue, Luke took out another handgun from his storage and shot at the black clothes raiders without hesitation. 

If you were ready to kill others, you have to be ready to be killed as well. 

This was a fact and lesson that Luke, no, Luke's body and memories had learned from the battlefield. Not to mention, Luke could tell from the gazes of all his enemies, that it wasn't the first time they had pointed their weapons to kill. 

Their hands already tainted, what to hesitate for? 

Quickly dodging the incoming three slash from three different directions, Luke jumped high enough in the air and shot at them. In a second, three man's who had attacked already fell over to the ground with holes in their head. 

Looking at the strange weapons Luke had wielded, the rest of them slowed their advance as wariness could be seen in their faces. Each shot was like the sound of a thunder, and that alone made them become wary. 

Falling back to the ground, Luke didn't miss the chance and back again shooting at them. He swiftly changed his gun's magazines into that of ordinary bullets and aimed at where they gathered the most.

On the next moment, another five of their companions fell to the ground with a hole in their head or heart. Noticing that its was a ranged weapons, the man who had initiated the charge quickly shouted, "⏃⍀☊⊑⟒⍀, ⏚⍀⟟⋏☌ ⊑⟟⋔ ⎅⍜⍙⋏! ⏁⊑⟒ ⍀⟒⌇⏁ ⍜⎎ ⊬⍜⎍, ⏁⏃☍⟒ ☊⍜⎐⟒⍀! (Archer, bring him down! The rest of you, take cover!)" 

Watching the situation unfold from the start and the one who had caused it, the old man that had pushed Luke, quickly grabbed the girl's hand and ran away as their chaser's attention was somewhere else. 

But of course, not all the raiders had engaged Luke. Three of them had observed their original prey from the beginning and moved to intercept them before they could leave. 

One of the three man who held a saber was licking his lips while he stared at the girl, "⊑⟒⊬, ⍙⊑⟒⍀⟒ ⏃⍀⟒ ⊬⍜⎍ ☌⍜⟟⋏☌, ⏚⟒⏃⎍⏁⊬? (Hey, where are you going, beauty?)" 

The old man took a side glance at the girl as they met each other's eyes and nodded slightly. Soon, both of them pulled out three throwing daggers from their sleeves and attacked the raiders in front of them. 

Didn't expect that their prey would retaliate, the raiders reaction was a bit slow and each of them got a dagger in one of their body parts. 

"⏁⊑⟟⌇ ⏚⟟⏁☊⊑… (This b*tch…)" 

Enraged, all of them were about to charge at the duo before their legs gave away as they felt a numbing pain spread all over their body. 

"⌿⍜⟟⌇⍜⋏.. (Poison..)" 

The three of them had their face become pale as they knew this poison was a potent one. They could not move a finger right after the dagger had stabbed them. Without the antidote soon, it won't be weird for them to die just like that. 

"⏁⊑⏃⏁'⌇ ⍙⊑⏃⏁ ⊬⍜⎍ ☌⍜⏁ ⏚⊬ ⋔⟒⌇⌇⟟⋏☌ ⍙⟟⏁⊑ ⎍⌇, ⊬⍜⎍ ⏚⏃⌇-

 ⏃⍀⍀☌⊑⊑! (That's what you got by messing with us, you bas-

 Arrghh!)" 

Before the old man could finish his speech, another raider had dashed at him from behind and slashed his back. The raider sent a kick right after that and made the old man hit his head first into the ground. 

"☌⍀⏃⋏⎅⌿⏃! (Grandpa!)" realizing that the old man was in danger, the girl took out another throwing dagger and hurled it to the raider. 

Parrying the dagger in the air with ease, the raider dashed at the young girl and sent another kick too on her stomach. Shortly, the girl kneeled down while holding her stomach and puked any contents inside. 

Not satisfied, the raider throw a punch to the girl's face as he spoke viciously, "☌⟟⎐⟒ ⋔⟒ ⏁⊑⟒ ⏃⋏⏁⟟⎅⍜⏁⟒. (Give me the antidote.)" 

Curling up on the ground, the girl didn't reply and instead tried to pull out another dagger on her sleeve. Seeing her reaction, the raider stomped right on her hand as he raised his sword high. 

"⏁⊑⟒⋏ ⎅⟟⟒. (Then die.)"
